ANN ARBOR, MI Tens of millions of dollars in federal stimulus money are expected to pour into local government coffers in Washtenaw County under the American Rescue Plan.
The $1.9 trillion aid package signed by President Joe Biden last week includes $350 billion for state and local governments, and $10.3 billion of that could be coming to Michigan, according to preliminary estimates shared by officials.
That could translate into nearly $2 billion in direct federal aid to Michigan’s 83 county governments, including nearly $72 million for Washtenaw County, said County Treasurer Catherine McClary, citing preliminary estimates shared by the Michigan Association of Counties.
